United Kingdom Colleagues Participate in Red Nose Day, Turning Laughter into Support for Vulnerable Groups
OOCL & Community

From March 18 to 20, 2026, colleagues across our UK office came together to support Red Nose Day 2026, raising funds for Comic Relief.

 


Red Nose Day

Every March, this unique fundraising campaign uses comedy to support great causes. It is a nationwide fundraising campaign supporting people facing tough circumstances in the UK and around the world, helping to provide food, safe shelter, and protection for those at risk of poverty and harm, while working towards a just world free from poverty.

 

Three Days of Fun and Fundraising for Red Nose Day

The three-day event was filled with energy, creativity, and strong team spirit. The office was transformed with decorations in true Red Nose Day style, setting the stage for a vibrant fundraising atmosphere. At the heart of the efforts was a lively bake sale, featuring an impressive variety of homemade treats generously prepared by colleagues. From baking at home to selling the cakes in the office, colleagues actively contributed their time, skills, and enthusiasm—with all proceeds donated to support the cause. The cakes filled two tables and were replenished throughout the event, reflecting days of non-stop baking, sharing, and enjoyment. Adding a uniquely personal touch, some colleagues even donated fresh eggs from their own chickens and ducks, underscoring the creativity and wholehearted commitment behind the fundraising efforts.​

 

Everyone joined in the fun by wearing red or Comic Relief merchandise, decorating red noses, and taking part in a “Best Decorated Nose" competition open to colleagues and their families, with a colleague's daughter winning the prize.​
